En Bretagne, Concarneau
We think this card was mailed in 1958 but the postmark over the stamp is hard to read. Someone likely in the British Post Office amended the postal code. There’s a tape remnant. All in all, an older card, well-loved over many years. Grade: 4

Paris, Moulin Rouge at night
A scene we’ve seen so many times over the years, in films and, now, on a B&W postcard: mailed in 1959, with two stamps and three readable postmarks you’re free to interpret. If only we could have been there at the same time the photo was taken. Grade: 1

Mello (Oise) – L’Eglise
Unused, old “local” card. Grade: 1

Paris, aerial view of Eiffel Tower
We agree that Eiffel Tower postcards are not in short supply. In case you are looking for one with these exact parameters, here it is: mailed in 1996 with two different stamps, bilingual airmail sticker, and clear postmark. Grade: 1

Paris, Sacré-Cœur
The Basilica of Sacré Coeur de Montmartre (Sacred Heart of Montmartre), says Wikipedia, is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica in Paris dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It was formally approved as a national historic monument by the National Commission of Patrimony and Architecture on December 8, 2022. Sacré-Cœur Basilica is located at the summit of the butte of Montmartre. From its dome two hundred meters above the Seine, the basilica overlooks Paris and its suburbs and is the second most popular tourist destination in the capital after the Eiffel Tower. (This hardly qualifies it as “minor”.) Card was mailed in 2024, with postmark and a stamp that looks like a postage meter label with a QR Code. Grade: 1
